Final stats have Android taking 29% of the US market while Apple and Blackberry both take 27%. For those interested in the rest Windows is still holding on to 10% of the market.

Apple to make iTunes more like Pandora?

March 28, 2011

I heart Pandora. No doubt about it. It is slick, easy to use, ultra personal, and will sit there quietly (or as loud as I want) and do its job; serve me up music. No muss, no fuss. By contrast I have thousands of songs in my music library that I rarely listen to because they are never on the hard drive near me, not sorted properly, not tagged, you get the point. It is often times easier to simply ignore them and stream. Apple is toying with a solution to this. Make iTunes a cloud service. It would

Verizon iPhone as good (or bad) as AT&T

March 26, 2011

According to Consumer Reports it would seem as though the Verizon iPhone is seemingly identical to its AT&T counterpart. That is to say it pretty much rocks in every way but the antenna. For this reason it was shunned from the recommended list with the group. The other news here is that they also did not recommend it for AT&T. No one seems to be affected by this news, certainly none of the people we know. While we do know people with a few dropped calls from time to time, they appear to be an acceptable cost of doing

March 23, 2011

This is a hard topic for us. Everyone has a cel phone and most are on it non-stop. No one has come out yet with significant proof that we are all slowly dying of brain tumors so, we continue to talk. Keep in mind though that until about 60 years ago we all though smoking cigarettes was actually healthy. (check this out). Unfortunately this study won’t actually answer any of your questions either but it does get us talking. Essentially it states that test subject’s brains were in fact sensitive to the low levels of radiation emitted from cel

Using iPads to sell you more stuff

March 21, 2011

One thing that is nearly un-arguable at this point is the fact that people really enjoy the iPad. It presents information is an incredibly sexy way. What’s not to like? Retailers have also started to realize this and have begun to test this in several locations. We too have worked with a retailers to apply sales tools for the iPad. Our experience is in-line with others online; retailers are excited about this for sure. In general it is a no-brainer if you think about it. You can make a store experience that has access to far more information than

March 18, 2011

Report after report shows us that China is on fire. While most people know that China makes a lot of the gadgets that the rest of the world uses, many don’t know that China is on track to be a major player in terms or actually purchasing goods as well. The estimates have China, as an example, accounting for as much as 25% of the world’s luxury purchasing in the upcoming years. This is not insignificant. Apple is clearly someone who gets this as well. They are planning a major store opening in Shanghai which is going to be
